LeBron James certainly isn’t among those doubting Caitlin Clark.
James was watching on Friday night as Clark’s Indiana Fever dismantled the Chicago Sky 100-81 behind a 31-point, 12-assist performance from the likely rookie of the year.
“CAITLIN CLARK!!!!! HI HATERS,” James wrote in a post on X.
Earlier this week, Clark set the rookie record for most 3-pointers in WNBA history.
She also holds the league’s single-game assist record, the most assists by a rookie and the first rookie triple-double in league history.
With the win on Friday, the Fever moved to 16-16 and sixth place in the Eastern Conference.
“This was a big one for us,” Clark told reporters. “It almost counts as two when you’re in a playoff race with a loss and a win. So it was a big one. But also, we wanted to win the season series with them. That was kind of a focus point. And the last time we were here, we were 15 in the fourth quarter and kind of fumbled it away. So that was another opportunity for us to come in here and show what we’re about.”
While there appeared to be a race between Clark and Angel Reese for the league’s rookie of the year award at one point, Clark is making a push to pull away.
And while there was some controversy around Clark being left off the Olympic team, even Dawn Staley — a member of the selection committee — admitted during the Games that Clark was likely deserving.
Slowly but surely, those who thought Clark would slow down when faced with professional competition are being proven wrong.
James, of course, was never in that category.
But a shoutout from the greatest men’s player currently in the game won’t hurt Clark’s standing with anyone.
